Here's what was originally said:

It has been misapplied by leftist USC justices since then to included those it was never written for

The problem is that the wording doesn't allow for "misapplication". We can believe it should not have been all-encompassing, but the simple fact of the matter is that it was written with a very specific text. To change that, it would require a ratification of change to the 14th Amendment. Anything other than that is judicial activism.
